Motivated by the high socio-economic impact of innovations in science and technology, entrepreneurship in STEM disciplines is gaining increasing attention. As a result, entrepreneurship education programs (EEPs) have been introduced and designed to train STEM faculty and expose them to entrepreneurial practice. This study examines factors…

As two Chicana scholar-activists, we recognize the common approach to oral history research is often technical and pragmatic and that published teaching materials rooted in radical feminist of color and Indigenous intellectual traditions are limited. In this article, we trace an intellectual and scholarly genealogy that demonstrates there is no…

Faced with bureaucratic responses to proposed anti-critical race theory (CRT) and LGBTQ+ legislation, Carmén is forced to contend with teacher and district responses and concerns. The case narrative is divided into three events, each requiring readers…

Across universities in the United Kingdom (UK), there is a long-standing gap in degree award outcomes for minority ethnic undergraduate students.

This paper illustrates how particular approaches to citizenship education can be catalysts or deterrents in the promotion of gender equality and social inclusion. The review suggests that new, emerging (i.e. decolonising, feminist, intersectional/situational) approaches to citizenship education and learning are more likely to address the multiple…
